Abstract

A network is the interconnection of two or more devices. The study of arrangement or mapping of elements (links, nodes) of a network is known as network topology. For communication distribution of computers has become very important issue which deliver end to end performance at a low cost, hence distribution system performance is influenced by the technology adopted by network interconnection so distribution of computers is done according to communication network arranged in a geometrical manner known as network topology. This paper provides a proper study of different types of basic network topologies on the basis of their advantages, disadvantages, different factors which differentiate them, literature review on the different network topology, and the methodology of the different network topology and its efficiency in the betterment and improvement in the area of data transmission for a better future.
